Elon Musk's Trans Daughter Epically Claps Back After Musk Claims His Child 'Died'

Elon Musk's estranged trans daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, used an iconic soundbite from RuPaul's Drag Race to clap back at Musk's claim that his child had "died."

The SpaceX co-founder responded to a post on X (formerly Twitter) defending Musk for appearing to give the Nazi salute twice at Republican President Donald Trump's inauguration.

A user shared a screenshot of a Guardian article with the headline "Elon Musk's daughter says father's rally gesture was 'definitely a Nazi salute.'"

The article featured a photo of Musk's controversial one-arm salute.

The user wrote in the caption:

"Don't people realize that we hate Hitler not for doing a quirky salute, but for killing millions of people? Has Elon killed even a single person? No."

"And just because his son says something, that doesn't necessarily make it true."

Musk responded by deadnaming Wilson and alleged that she was "killed by the woke mind virus," which he's spouted before in a transphobic rant during a Daily Wire interview on The Jordan B. Peterson Podcast in July of 2024.

Wilson, who legally changed her name in 2022 when she turned 18, posted a TikTok video responding to the tech billionaire's comment.

The clip began with a screenshot of Musk's X comment and was followed by Wilson striking a fierce pose with hands in her pocket.

She lip-synced to an audio clip taken from Drag Race, mouthing along: “I look pretty good for a dead b*tch.”

The TikTok, which you can see below, went viral with over 45k likes so far—well above Musk's 6k likes for his "woke mind virus" tweet.

Social media users cheered Wilson on for her fierce affirmation of life.

In the 2024 Daily Wire interview, Musk, who was once criticized for spreading misinformation about COVID-19, stating that the coronavirus panic was "dumb," blamed the "death" of his trans child on the "woke mind virus."

Throughout the interview, he continued deadnaming Wilson to hundreds of millions of followers.

"I was essentially tricked into signing documents for one of my older boys," Musk explained to Peterson during the podcast, adding:
  

 “This was before I had really any understanding of what was going on and we had COVID going on, so there was a lot of confusion. I was told [Vivian] might commit suicide.” 

Musk also claimed he was "tricked" into signing off on gender-affirming care for Vivian, and he falsely equated the medical intervention supporting an individual's gender identity to "child mutilation and sterilization."

Wilson, who dropped the Musk surname and took her mother and Musk's ex-wife Justine Wilson's surname, recently revealed that Musk pays extra for sex-selective IVF to produce male offspring.

"My assigned sex at birth was a commodity that was bought and paid for," she wrote in a March 9 post on Bluesky, adding: 

“So when I was feminine as a child and then turned out to be transgender, I was going against the product that was sold.” 

“That expectation of masculinity that I had to rebel against all my life was a monetary transaction. A monetary transaction. A MONETARY TRANSACTION," she wrote in a follow-up post.

When Musk was slammed for displaying the Sieg Heil arm salute one after the other at Trump's inauguration, Wilson took to Bluesky and wrote:

"I'm just gonna say let's call a spade a f**king spade. Especially if there were two spades done in succession based on the reaction of the first spade."

If anything is clear, it's that Wilson is not afraid of speaking out against her estranged father.

Kudos to you, Vivian.
